Description

No. 20 Market Place is an 18th-century building that has been altered. It stands three stories tall and has a lower elevation compared to the adjacent White House Hotel to the south-east, projecting forward by the depth of one window bay and featuring a lower ridge line. The building is constructed of colourwashed brick and has an old tiled roof. There are two sash windows with flush boxes and intact glazing bars on the upper floors facing south-west, with painted rubbed brick voussoirs above them. On the north-west side, there is one window on both upper floors. The ground floor has a plain 19th-century shop front that is partly recessed. This building is part of a group of listed buildings in Corn Market and Market Place.
